The Lookout by Gardener's Cottage

It’s worth the hike (or taxi) up Calton Hill to this glass box perched over the city centre. Floor-to-ceiling windows take full advantage of the view across the shimmering Firth of Forth all the way to Fife. The original Gardener’s Cottage on London Road is famous for local produce, game and foraged ingredients, and the Lookout doesn’t stray from the party line. The set tasting menu changes daily, and recurring favourites like langoustine ravioli take full advantage of Scotland’s natural bounty.
